Got rid of my dining room - what next!?
I just sold my dining room table and buffet - because we never used it. It just was a place for me to store piles of junk that drove my husband crazy! So now I have an empty room that I'm not sure what to do with. While some organization would be good- I don't need a mudroom or a craft room or anything like that. It is not a large room- see picture. I'm considering some built ins and bench around the window. Because I think that would be nice to have if someone turned it back into a dining room. Going to replace the light fixture - but then what. We'd like it to be usable and not just going from one unused room to another. Any ideas? Spacing chairs in there will be awkward since it's so small. Planning on keeping the color. Anyone have any great ideas??
